''Lone (Matt Cutler) has something that I think is very healthy for an
artist to have in this age of myspace music and the vast array of
underground labels, and that's a strong identity - I could spot a
Lone track by hearing one or two bars, he has a personality in his
music that is vivid. I reckon that Lemurian could provoke
synaesthetic reactions in those who don't already have the condition,
that is, its character seems to extend beyond the sonic domain into
some other sensual domain. I think that if Lemurian was a colour,
it'd be aquamarine. If it had a smell, it'd be seaweed on the breeze.
If it had a taste, it'd be saltwater. If it had a texture, it'd be
scratchy coral. 'Sea Spray' is about as fitting a title as you could
get for a Lemurian track. As well as filling your ears with faded
loungey chords, bursts of weathered VHS stings and Hawaiian musical
postcards, Lemurian is caked with the thickest punchiest soulfully-
shuffled hip hop beats that would satisfy anyone who simply has to
nod their head to enjoy themselves. This is also daydream music, you
can't listen to it without going off somewhere. Personally, I slip
into the daydream of being sucked into the 80s arcade game 'Outrun'
and tearing around a looped pixellated parallel to Miami or some
other palm-tree-avenued sea front, with Lemurian pumping out of the
car stereo of course.'' - Bibio (Mush / Artists' Valley Records)
